Many people may have seen the atomic bomb explode on TV or in photos, a thick mushroom cloud rose in the sky, and the explosion was very powerful, the scope of the impact was quite wide, and the subsequent impact was very serious, just like the two atomic bombs dropped by the United States in Japan in order to end World War II, causing more than 100,000 Japanese casualties.
Atomic bombs and a series of other nuclear weapons were only invented in the last century, and even now they are a symbol of a country's military might; but back in history, there was a similar explosion in ancient China 400 years ago, when a mushroom cloud was raised over Beijing and 20,000 people were broken bones.
Modern historians have repeatedly tried to find fruitless, the reason is still unsolved, so it has been listed as one of the "three mysteries of nature in the world", and this explosion is the famous "Apocalypse Big Bang". What's going on here? Let's move on.
In 1626, during the Ming Dynasty's Apocalypse, on the morning of May 30, Emperor Zhu Youzong (Ming Xizong), the Emperor of the Apocalypse, was resting in his palace when he suddenly felt an extremely violent earthquake, which was very strong. The Emperor of the Apocalypse quickly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly escaped from his bedchamber and hid under the table in a small room in the side hall.
At that time, the residents of Beijing City only saw that in the southwest corner of the city, near the area near the gunpowder depot of Wang Gongchang, a mushroom cloud slowly rose into the sky, and the shock wave spread everywhere, and many people were torn to pieces because they could not withstand such a powerful impact, and the houses fell one by one.
Because the Emperor of Heaven took timely measures, he saved a life, but the eunuchs and palace ladies around him did not have such good luck, and there were many deaths and injuries. According to incomplete statistics, there were about 20,000 people who died in this accident at that time, and they were directly reduced to broken bones, which really made people's scalps tingle.
After the disaster, people began to tremble with fear, and they felt that this was a punishment from Heaven. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was gradually declining, and the power was in the hands of eunuchs and a small number of nobles, who levied harsh taxes and desperately oppressed the people, and the people lived in a deep and fierce situation.
Ancient people had always believed in all kinds of metaphysics, and this explosion made many people dissatisfied with the rule of the Ming Dynasty, they thought that this was a natural punishment, and even the heavens could not see the Ming Dynasty's practice of oppressing the people, so many people with hearts used the topic of heavenly condemnation to try to revolt and overthrow the rule of the Ming Dynasty.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was not a fool, although he did not know what was going on, but he still took timely countermeasures, first announcing to the world his mistakes since taking office, and also removing the power of some corrupt officials that the people hated, which also calmed the anger of the people and made the rule of the Ming Dynasty continue for decades.
From today's point of view, the idea of heavenly condemnation is obviously not in line with scientific basis, and many scientists and historians want to explore the reasons for this.
Some say that it was caused by an earthquake, because according to the texts there was indeed a strong sense of ground shaking at that time, but the earthquake did not cause such a large mushroom cloud, so this conjecture was subsequently rejected; there is also a theory that meteorites hit the earth, but this idea was later considered incorrect.
Because the Ming Dynasty had a certain study of astrology at that time, if it was really a meteorite hitting the earth, the ming dynasty astrologists would also reflect or record it, but there was no relevant content found in the classics; and the meteorite hit the earth, and such a serious explosion event would definitely leave meteorite debris, but there was no historical record.
The occurrence of this accident is very confusing, and it is called the "Apocalypse Explosion" incident by posterity. Many people may think that this is just a fabrication of the content, after all, the origin of this explosion is really clueless, as if it happened out of thin air, but to know that all this content has been recorded in the "Heavenly Change Di Copy", "Di Pao" is equivalent to what we now call the newspaper, it is almost impossible to fictional, it seems that to explain the mystery of the Apocalypse Big Bang, there are historians to discuss it.
